intro: Eb5

Eb5                       F#5       C#5
Heard of a land held by a troubled hand 
Eb5                  F#5          C#5
Where the whiskey runs the coal 
Eb5                 F#5          C#5
Don't you dare go ask the newsman 
             B5                              Eb5
Cause he'll tell you everything He don't know 

Eb5                         F#5         C#5
She was the daughter of the second american revolution 
Eb5                F#5   C#5       Eb5
A tall girl with a stones constitution 
                                F#5      C#5
And when she looked into their eyes to see
     B5                                            Eb5 
She know she ain't never going back to what she believe 
                    B5  C#5
To what you believe 

F#5                             Bb5
So go and riddle me over I'm a man got nothing to show for    
                Eb5                       C#5
My work in the ground In this here londontown 
F#5                             Bb5
So go and riddle me over I'm a man got nothing to show for
                Eb5            C#5 
My work in the ground Got my back to the fire 
                  B5                Bb5         Eb5 
But it ain't the bridges that are falling down 

They said they would never fight no more 
After the day she went away 
What in the world are we all fighting for 
If we don't give they're going to take 

So go and riddle me over I'm a man got nothing to show for
My work in the ground In this here londontown 
So go and riddle me over I'm a man got nothing to show for
My work in the ground 
        C#5
Got my back to the fire and my feet on the ground 
                  B5                Bb5
But it ain't the bridges that are falling down 

(play verse chords over bridge)
It's just another 
It's just a 
Go and riddle me over 

Go and riddle me over 
I'm a man got nothing to show for 
My work in the ground 
Got my back to the fire 
But it ain't the bridges that are falling down 

(play verse chords over outro)
Say that again 
You say that again 
Oh what's left to hold in place
